Abstract
A novel octagonal SiGe p-type intrinsic n-type (PIN) diode single pole single throw (SPST) switch is first implemented in a standard 0.18-μm SiGe BiCMOS technology. Distinctive radio frequency performance of monolithic silicon PIN diode switch is achieved for broadband applications with improvement of its geometry. Over the 2-16 GHz frequency band, the PIN diode SPST switch exhibits an insertion loss of less than l dB and isolation between 42 dB to 19 dB. An accurate small signal model of series PIN diode is also presented. © 2007 IEEE.
